[Surgery of rare malignant lung tumours].

4023 operations on account of primary bronchopulmonary cancer were performed in the period of 1963--2006 years. Rare malignant tumors (carcinoid, adenocystic cancer, sarcoma, large cell carcinoma etc.) were diagnosed in 379 (9,1%) cases.

[Long-term results of bronchial resection and plastic repair in patients with lung cancer].

Thoracic units perform plastic operations on the bronchi in 5-10% of all radical interventions for lung cancer. This figure was 7.5% at our unit.

[Reoperations in adenomas of the bronchus].

The authors discuss their experience in the treatment of 18 patients who were operated on for a second time due to the development of a recurrent tumor. A true and false recurrence was distinguished. The causes of their development were: diagnostic errors in 6, malignancy of the adenoma in 4, and technical faults during the operation in 8 patients.
